Today, my girlfriend saw the name "Melissa" on my phone's contact list. After refusing to tell her who it was, she accused me of being a cheater, broke up with me and stormed out of my house. Melissa is the name of a woman from Craigslist who was going to sell me an antique engagement ring. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend and I were on the road. She saw that I got an innocent text from a friend, Melissa. In a fit of jealous rage, she put the gear of my car to “P” causing the car behind me to rear end me. My bumper fell off. She told me, “Tell that bitch Melissa to take care of that.” FML
Today, I was shopping with my girlfriend, when a girl came out of nowhere, screaming at me for cheating on her, and saying she was dumping me. I've never seen her before, and she was almost grinning during her little act, but my girlfriend believed it, and I'm now single. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me and threw all my stuff out into the yard because she caught me "texting another woman". Guess it didn't matter to her that the contact name was "Mom". FML
Today, my fiancée broke up with me over text message while I was away for work. She later posted photos of her and her new boyfriend on Facebook, while still wearing my engagement ring. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me, saying I was immature for making gay jokes all the time. A few hours later, I got six texts and three calls from guys I didn't know. It turns out, she put my name and number on Craigslist as a gay man seeking a relationship. FML
Today, I found out that my girlfriend of almost four years was breaking up with me when she captioned an Instagram post saying, "Who else besides me is going into 2018 single?" I had already bought an engagement ring. FML
Today, I found out my fiancée has been sleeping with the salesman I bought her engagement ring from. He knew. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she suspected me of cheating. She thought I was cheating because she caught me sneaking out in the middle of the night. I was sneaking out to plan my proposal to her. FML
Today, while heading to the bathroom, I saw my girlfriend putting some lingerie under my bed. I stupidly thought it was for some sexy time later. Well, later on, she dramatically "found" the lingerie and broke up with me. Almost everyone believes her story and thinks I'm a dirty cheater. FML
Today, according to my girlfriend's instant messenger, which she left open on my laptop, I am her rough shag on the side while she searches for a guy who is husband material that her parents will approve of. I guess the engagement ring in my bag is going back to the shop. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hey man you gotta learn how to lie.

You could have told her that it was because of a present to her... Then no loose ends to misunderstand on :) Fyl though, she sounds kind of insecure.. If she really love you, maybe she will want you back

Ouch man. Next time just lie. Let her simmer down and tell her what you were really planning.

She's going to feel pretty silly when she finds out, should've saved it under a guy's name!

Agreed!

I guess he wouldn't have expected her to react like that, so he wouldn't have thought to save it under a guy's name

I'm wondering why she felt the need to go through his phone. My husband and I never go through each others phones. It's another sign of insecurity.

haha i was giving my number to a guy in school once and he said what should i save it under? idk my name? he probably had a phone searching girlfriend
ladyLALAA 29
138, I just think that he didn't know what your name actually was...
spacewardtrout 16
yes, because it's up to him to put a false name on the contact rather than expecting her to not go totally psycho?
iloveursister 4
so your ex girlfriend didnt allow u to have other females on ur contact list?

A sign of what was to come. She has serious trust issues and it'll only get worse. You're better off.
yanksby7 6
Amen to that...a relationship without trust is not a relationship!!! You're better off dude. Get yourself a girl who doesn't invite unnecessary drama and live happily ever after.

Call her and explain. If she doesn't believe you show her Craigslist or something! Get her back!

Seems like to me he just saved a heap of cash, and he should spend it on himself or if he crosses paths with another woman who he wants to marry, then on her. Hopefully that one for op's case is not a nutter.

Ur an idiot he should explain and get her back if he loves her tht much u asshole

Why did you add her to your contacts in the first place? After you call about the ad the number would be in your call log. That way if questioned you could say it was a wrong number. Or if that's too difficult, why not just save her to your contacts as Craig?

So it's the guys fault? Women.

She must have shown her crazy side before if they've been together long enough for him to consider marriage. Sooo, if he knew she had serious jealousy issues and did this then yes his fault. He's better off in the long run though. She's obviously nuts.
icallbullshit 3
It is in no way his fault.

Women.

Pretend to text Melissa telling her that you don't need the ring because your girlfriend is paranoid and send it to your girlfriend by "accident". See how she feels then.

Smart!!

the hell with your girlfriend, I'm serious. I'm in the exact same situation. Fights that go about absolutely nothing; you don't have to defend yourself
yanksby7 6
LEAVE! There are non-psycho girls out there. I promise! I'm one of em! If she trusts you, jealousy should not be an issue. If she doesn't then you're missing the most important part of a relationship, and it is doomed to fail anyway.

Maybe it's for the best, but you really should have said something. Refusing to tell her is rather suspicious, though if you serious enough to marry the trust should be there.
Pandacupcakelove 26
Yeah, you're right! Maybe OP should just keep the ring and give it to someone special instead...
